A consideration of the dilemma in society that will appear when artificial intelligence becomes a citizen

This study examined the ethical dilemma that appears when robots gain citizenship following the development of the artificial intelligence era. First, we examined the definition of a citizen in ancient Greece and modern soci-ety, as well as scholars' definitions of citizens, and examined the dilemma of the actions of creators and AI citizens when AI was recognized as a citizen. In addition, ethical dilemmas related to immoral behavior of artificial intelligence were examined from the perspective of civil and human rights and rights. In addition, ethical dilemmas related to immoral behavior of arti-ficial intelligence were examined in relation to legal aspects and citizenship. When summarizing these dilemmas, if artificial intelligence claims freedom, equality, and rights by possessing functions such as thinking, emotion, empathy, and moral behavior, which are unique concepts of humans, then humans must give artificial intelligence a level similar to that of humans, and even more similar to humans. The fundamental question lies in wheth-er equal levels of rights, emotions, etc. can be recognized. This suggests that research and ethical standards should be prepared for this.
